Painkillers such as NSAIDs have a side effect on humans that cause gastric mucosal injury by blocking the COX-1 enzyme and the COX-2 enzyme. Etoricoxib belongs to the group that only affects the COX-2 enzyme. This painkiller has a wide range of actions in the human body. THYKN Pharma Outsourcing supplies elite level etoricoxib globally.

COMMON USES OF ETORICOXIB:

  • The pain of any sort.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis.
  • Osteoarthritis.
  • Ankylosing spondylitis.
  • Gout.
  • Chronic Pain.

STORAGE OF ETORICOXIB:

Room temperature is optimal for the storage of etoricoxib. It should be kept inside a closed container.


Description

Etoricoxib is a painkiller drug that reduces the concentration of pain mediators. It does so by blocking the COX-2 enzyme selectively and, therefore, is better than conventional NSAIDs. All kinds of pain are dealt with by this drug very effectively. This newer drug is approved in almost all countries but the US.

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION:

Etoricoxib has an IUPAC name of 5-chloro-2-(6-methylpyridin-3-yl)-3-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)pyridine. The chemical formula for this compound is C18H15ClN2O2S.

PRODUCT APPLICATION:

Etoricoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor. COX enzymes are the enzymes that are involved in the synthesis of prostaglandins and prostacyclins. These compounds are the mediators of pain and are responsible for other actions, such as protecting the stomach lining. NSAIDs block both COX-1 as well as COX-2 enzymes. COX-1 is involved in stomach protection; inhibition of it by NSAIDs can result in gastric ulcers. On the other hand, selective COX-2 inhibitors block only the COX-2 enzymes, and only the pain is reduced, and stomach integrity is not compromised. Etoricoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor and is better for managing pains that require long-term medication.
